"WHIT?" NEGRO 18 DEAD
Talk of Coudtry When Qnnfd From
Black to Whit#
MfWton, Juno Newton's oldest
citron, Dolph SaUer, negro died Sun- 1
day evening. Ho was about 05 years
old and was born within tho present
'limit* of the corporation, but long
tboforo there was any thought of a
town. All of Catawba was at that
time part of Lincoln county and Dolph
was born on the farm of Reuben
Setzer.
About 10 years ago hp bccame na
tionally known, from the fact that
at that time his color, which had
Ik < n coal black, began turning white
in spots. These spots gradually grew
until his whole body became ,)vhite.
For the past quarter of a century,
any stranger meeting him would have
taken him for a white man.
Ho was Newton's best informed
citizen about early history of the
tpwn. He saw the surveyors stake
it off, mark the place for the first
house built, and to his death could
teil tho exact location of the first doz
en residences and all the first stores
erected in Newton. He could .give
the names .of all of the first citizens,
tell where they came from, and what
their occupations, were, lie has been
X?f much assistance to the Daughters
of the Confederacy in gathering data
about Catawba soldiers. He saw ev
ery company (mm Catawba give their
| last drill in Newton and take train j
for the buttlefronts, and could tell I
from what section of the country oacn
company was enlisted, the names of
the officers and many of the pri
vates. j
Dolph carried brick for tho build -
j ing of the first courthouse, 75 years i
Hgo, made mortar for the two addi- j
tions to the old building, helped to I
tear it down and carried the fir.->t !
brick for the new building, which was |
i erected last year.

"If you can't accept my story, I
wish you would write me and tell me
exactly what's wrong with it."
"Please don't mail this back. I'll
come in at 1 o'clock Saturday after

TVo Boys Captured With Car
Two young white boys, Ernest
Avon, 15, of 717 South Eighth street,
and Fred Hillburg, 15, of Gil South
Fourth street, of Wilmington, North
Carolina, arrived in Chester this
morning around 12 o'clock. On the
way from Rock Hill they picked up
A. B. Gunnells, of Covington, (Ja.,
who was on his way to get work in
Charleston, he says.
When they rolled into the Pryor
Service Station, in Chester, Gunnells
advised Mr. W. T. Betts proprietor,
that the boys had probably stolen
the car. Mr* John Sanders, con
stable, was called and arrested the
two young men.
The automobile is a Dodge touring
car, with a South Carolina tag num
ber C-1563; motor number A -247, 444.
serial number 1706529. The right
hub cap is missing, also the gas tank
cap. The speedometer registers 507
miles.
"We left Wilmington Tuesday, and
walked a large part of the way to
Lumberton. We got the car in Lum
berton yesterday. went from
there to Camden and back to Char
lotte, and came on through Rock Hill
to Chester," the boys said.
Ernest Avon said he had worked
some time ago in the City Meat Mar
ket, at Wilmington. Hillburg said
lie had spent a large part of his
time on the golf links, caddying for
the golfers there. Both claim they
could find no work to do, so they
started out to find some;
Both boys looked tired and fore
lorn, and claim they were very hun
gry. They will be held in the Ches
ter jail until authorities, which have
been communicated with, arrive from
Lumberton. ? Friday's Chester News.
Small Pox at Lucknow
Small pox in the Lucknow section
of Lee county has reached the epi
demic stage, according to statement#
made by several Bishopville doctors
yesterday. There were a few cases
found two weeks ago and it seems
that it has spread with fnuch rapidity
in spite of the quarantine and every
effort on the part of those in author^
ity to prevent its spread.
It has been impossible to determine
the number of cases at this time. It
is said that there are quite u num
ber of children affected, due, it is
thought, to the fact that the law re
quiring vaccination had been ignored.
There is a great demand now for
vaccination and doctors are being
kept busy by those who fear the dis
ease. It is hoped that with the pre
cautionary measures now in force will
soon see the epidemic under con
trol. ? Bishopville Messenger.
I*ay Penalty at Last
Columbia, June 5. ? Carroll Orr, G#
year old negro, paid the death penalty
at the state penitentiary today for the
murder of J. Madison Heape, Con
federate veteran in Charleston county
several months ago.
Strapped in the electric chair, the
negro protested his innocence. "I'm
going clear," was his farewell state
ment. The current was turned on at
10: J 9 this morning and in four min
utes physicians announced the man
dead. Orr was twice tried and con
victed of the murder of the Confed
erate veteran. His execution was de
layed after bis second sentence by
a reprieve from Governor McLeod
pending the investigation of alleged
irregularities in connection with his
second trial.

of fruits, is now established on every
